Non-autistics seem capable of being okay with the parts of life that torture me like a ball of fishhooks lodged in my guts, but at the same time they seem to sleepwalk through life without tasting anything. Being conscious feels unbearable some days, and yet I love to be alive, and I've hardly met anyone who loves to be alive the way I do. I drink deeply from the cup of life and taste strawberries and chocolate and nectar and seawater and sewage, and for everyone else it's just water.

Yes it’s more work, but pride is for everyone, it’s needs to be inclusive.

No, I'm not okay with it. In fact, I'm going to have debilitating stomach pains for the next 24 hours until it's back to normal.

"Hardworking and quiet" should be as much of an autism red flag as "ignores rules and doesn't know when to stop talking". Or why don't we just start using words to communicate so i can stop tracking everybody's eyebrow twitches, that would be great.

can not hide behind “it just stereotype” because that not true . there are many people very disabled by autism , you need remember us and include us .
